should be... runthe restore with maximum verbosity '-v9' and post the complete 
output to pastebin (obfuscate private info in it) and send the link. maybe i'll 
see something.

you might want to monitor the disk usage during the restore. my guess would be 
that the final copy of 30GB fails. maybe duplicity keeps downloaded volumes in 
temp until finished?
